Timesheet Enhancements

Timesheets for hourly non-exempt and student employees paid from project sponsored accounts have been changed.
Beginning Thursday, September 18, 2008, timesheets for these employees will include funding information because these employees or the Department Time Administrator (DTAs) on the behalf of these employees will now certify the time recorded represents work performed during that period.

KEY POINTS ABOUT THIS CHANGE

  • The enhancement eliminates the need to submit a separate Effort Report.
  • The online timesheet now fulfills Federal regulation requirements.
  • Department Time Administrators (DTAs) can no longer mass-approve timesheets. Instead, they must now approve individual timesheets for any employees paid from a sponsored project.
  • DTAs should coordinate reviews/approval of hours worked with the employee’s direct supervisor and/or the project’s Principal Investigator (PI)

NOTE:  If an employee is not paid by a sponsored project, there is NO CHANGE to their timesheet.
All timesheets must be approved each Monday by 12 Noon.
